50 years ago, The Beatles performed their very last concert on a rooftop of all places. LOL!

I would've been four year's old and totally oblivious at the time. Fifty years on and I see a picture on a soul forum the other side of the pond and immediately recognise. Iconic date set in time.

I was 6. Had no clue. But know the "mop tops'" musical relevance now, though!! Just think of it - Ringo and Sir Paul are recording in the 21st century!!

Anyone recall how stringent Sir Paul & co. can be about their catalog?
1) Rappers, Doug E. Fresh and KRS-ONE, both sampled ,",Hey, Jude"?
[[Doug E was forced, legally, to remove the sample from his "The Show")

2) And the massive fallout with Sir Paul & MJ over The Gloved One purchasing the Beatles catalog and/or masters? [[reportedly, Sir Paul said, privately, to his mates: "Say, Say, Say"!)
